Cottage vacation rentals in Centre Hastings

Everything about this cottage is perfect. The host thoughtfully provided everything for a great stay. The kitchen is fully equipped—just bring your food. Views from the living room and bedrooms are breathtaking, overlooking the lake with beach-like waves. If it rains, you have board games, vinyls, video games, and a big TV with streaming services by a cozy fireplace and charming decor. Outside, the beach is right by the deck—perfect for morning coffee and peaceful moments. There’s a spa, BBQ, and a fire pit for romantic sunsets. Kayaks are available in the basement; bring your fishing gear (and permit). This is our favorite place so far. It’s walking distance to a waterfront trail and Presqu’ile Park amazing hiking trails, places to picnic, etc by the lake. You’re close to shops and great diners like Counter in Trenton and Whistling Duck in Brighton. This last-minute trip turned into an amazing find. Huge thanks to Jess, our host! We can’t wait to be back.

Greg’s place is incredible, we would all go back in a heartbeat! Greg is a great host, always responsive and he made sure we had great stay. The place itself is beautiful, has a lot amenities and it’s super cozy. Beds are very comfortable and every space clean and well taken care of. Definitely recommended.

I had the best stay ever! This charming cottage exceeded all my expectations. It's absolutely stunning, with beautiful decor and a cozy ambiance that makes you feel right at home. The cottage is fully equipped with everything you could possibly need, from a well-stocked kitchen to plush linens and towels. The location is wonderfully peaceful, surrounded by nature, which adds to the relaxing atmosphere. Plus, the hot tub was the perfect touch—soaking in it after a day of exploring was an absolute delight! Overall, it was a perfect getaway.

Kevin was super welcoming and responsive host! recommend his place to anyone who wants to have good time :)

"Heather's place is an amazing getaway—immaculately clean, spacious, and perfectly situated right on the lake. The beautiful surroundings and well-equipped facilities make it ideal for a relaxing stay. It comfortably accommodates large groups, especially families with kids. Heather was incredibly responsive and helpful throughout our stay. We would definitely love to return!"

This place definitely has character. Lots of small things that make you feel right at home. Very cozy and private, and lots of light. Full kitchen and a fireplace are fantastic

Host was very responsive and kind. Instructions were clear and the cottage was as advertised. 100% recommended.

The place was lovely and Emily is a really responsive helpful host. She gave us loads of info ahead of check in and also added local recommendations. The view onto the lake is wonderful and we had everything we needed for a great stay!

We spent New Year’s at Leah’s place, and it was absolutely amazing. Her guest house is so cozy, and she’s an incredible hostess. Not to mention, her place is dog-friendly, which made it even better! It was such a memorable way to ring in the new year.

We’ve stayed in lots of places around the county, and this was very pleasant. Jeff was a very kind and responsive host - was very proactive in giving directions. Would absolutely stay again.

We had such a wonderful stay! The space was warm, inviting, and all it was advertised to be. It was exactly what we needed—a comfortable and peaceful spot to relax. The host was incredibly kind and accommodating, allowing us to check in a bit early. The personal touches really made the place feel like a home away from home. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a charming, relaxing stay with the most beautiful wood burning fireplace.

My family and I had a wonderful getaway at York Riverscape. The cottage was well stocked with all the essentials. We especially loved not having to bring our own bedding and towels. The kids had a blast with the foosball table: Julie and Roger were responsive hosts and their cottage was exactly as described. We plan to return in the future.

Ke's place was fantastic. Would highly recommend to others for a short getaway from the city.

It was a really good experience. If you are looking for a place to relax it is the place. I recomend it 100%

South Bay Cottage is truly a perfect and lovely lake getaway. Drive off the main road and into your own private cove outfitted with everything you need for a wonderful stay. Once inside, the view of Lake Stoney can be seen through the large windows from anywhere in the main room. The sunsets and starry skies were so peaceful - and even though locals told us it was unusual - we actual had an amazing view of the Northern Lights! We loved that this cottage included all the linens we needed and lots of areas to get cozy and read a book - including the extra-special gazebo. While the kitchen area is small - it is well equipped with everything we needed. Close to great hikes (Petroglyph Provincial Park, High Falls at Eels Creek, Warsaw Caves, and many others.) Also great to explore the area's great golf courses, Wanderlight Alpaca walks (a must do), Peterborough Pete's hockey, Peterborough theatre, and amazing restaurants in Lakefield (Loon, Cassia, and more). Melissa was a wonderful host!

Beautiful cozy cottage with an amazing view and so many great activities. We had a fantastic time with our family. Rebecca and her family are super helpful and kind, they are always quick to respond to any questions we had. We look forward to visiting this fall and winter!!

Our stay was perfect, chalet had everything you could ask for and more! We stayed for work so we didn’t get a chance to go to the beach, or play any of the ample board games, but the kitchen was wonderfully stocked and the shower had great water pressure! Could not have asked for a better stay!

Was very comfortable to stay at Thomas's cottage. We stayed with 4 adults and 4 kids in the winter. The sauna was especially nice. The kitchen was well stocked. Everything worked well and communication was great.

Tammy was the sweetest, most helpful hist to my parents. I booked this place for their 1 year anniversary weekend and they were in love. She left them a cute note and got them a bottle of wine to celebrate. They loved the space so much and felt right at home and didn't want to leave. Tammy thank you SO much for your hospitality and taking such good care of my parents. They will absolutely be back!!

It's a very cute and peaceful place to stay. It's surrounded by lots of foliage to ensure privacy, and I love all the small touches around the place. I would definitely love to come back in the summertime to experience all the trails and conservation areas.

Thank you, Marla for the beautiful weekend getaway! Was so happy to have my dogs with me. 😊 the fireplace is absolutely stunning.

Mihaela's cottage was a lovely little place surrounded by trees. Despite its location deep down the cottage roads, it took less than 15 minutes to drive wherever we needed to go (Buckhorn, Bobcaygeon, Kawartha Highlands Signature Park). The cottage itself was comfortable and clean, but we especially enjoyed the lovely firepit and jacuzzi 😄 Mihaela was also a responsive and understanding host, leaving plenty of clear instructions and responding to questions in record time. Overall we had a great stay and I would happily recommend this cottage to others!

Such a wonderful spot to escape to in South Frontenac!! The location right on the water was peaceful, and the amenities made it great for spending quality time together. We loved having access to the kayaks and a great selection of board games. The house came fully stocked with everything needed in the kitchen – there were lots of extra supplies that were easy to find. The fire pit was also the perfect spot to make s’mores in the evenings. The host was incredibly responsive and friendly throughout our booking and stay. Overall, it was a fantastic experience and I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway!!

Enjoyed our stay at this beautiful property, has everything you need. We stayed the week of valentines and couldn’t have asked for more. I could only imagine how perfect it would be in the summer with the water sports and many other amenities this property offers. Erika and Adam were kind and responsive and helped us with all our needs!! Definitely would go again.
